Police: Ardmore man accused of stealing underwear, firing shots

Police were called to Big 5 apartments in Ardmore around 4 a.m. Tuesday after a victim said a burglar stole clothes, underwear and other personal items, officials said.

While at the scene, officers said they heard three gunshots from the area and discovered an elderly lady who said someone shot her dog.

Ardmore police found a vehicle that matched the description of the suspect's vehicle and tried to make contact. Police said the suspect, identified as Octavius Godwin, fled the vehicle and locked himself inside a house.

Investigators said Godwin was detained from the home and later arrested.

During the investigation, police said several bags of marijuana believed to be packaged to sell.

The two car passengers, DasJaa Booker and a teen whose name was not released, were released from custody after charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute were submitted to the district attorney.

Officers said Godwin was arrested on complaints of using a motor vehicle to facilitate the discharge of a firearm.
